Kobe Hibachi & Sushi — Restaurant in Covington

I was excited about this new restaurant in town..., but sadly disappointed. I have eaten there three times now so I'd say I've given them fair chance. The meat was tough and overcooked all times, I will say the tofu was wonderful though, and quite flavorful. The vegetables were all soggy and drenched in oil and as other reviewers mentioned the "fried rice" was extremely bland..absolutely zero flavor...it looks like white rice with a tiny amount of soy sauce added to it...this doesn't even deserve to be called fried rice. The yakisoba was also very bland and taste like store bought noodles. I gave two stars only because they were friendly, the food was prepared promptly after ordering, and the tofu was wonderful..negative three stars for overall taste of food...maybe I'll give them another chance...

Food was great. Fresh. Flavorful. But while we waited on our food, we witnessed the cashier getting loud and fussing with the older lady who was doing waitress duties. Then as we sat down to eat, the man in the back started screaming at the older lady and then he started hollering at the cashier. It was pretty heated and made us feel uncomfortable for both women. The atmosphere was very tense. Not sure why he was mad, but every one in the restaurant paused as he was hollering and acting aggressively. I thought it was very unprofessional. The service was great and food was wonderful. I just felt uncomfortable and concerned about what was going on behind the scenes. If he didn't mind doing that in public, in front of paying customers, imagine what he does...

I grabbed takeout on Wednesday. The cashier was pleasant. The food came fairly fast. I ordered the Shrimp Hibachi with an egg, but without mushrooms and a side of Fried Shrimp. The Shrimp in the Shrimp hibachi were a tad overcooked. The rice was dry. It’s weird to not have vegetables in the rice (diced onions, and scallions, at least). I would’ve loved a little more sesame oil too. The crust on the fried shrimp was super thick and not completely cooked all the way through. I threw them in the oven when I got home. The grilled vegetables that come with it were good. It was definitely a lot of food. I actually shared it with...
